Pretty Goodness

String to String prettification for text based data serialisation formats (only JSON is supported currently).

For data serialisation Serde is the gold standard.

However if you get some serialised data and it needs to be prettyafied Serde would probably be the default choice for doing this.

To do the prettification Serde Serialises and then deserialises the data from and to text based formats.

Wouldn't it be more efficient if the serialisation and deserialisation steps could be avoided?

This is what Pretty Goodness is for: the conversion of ugly Strings into a pretty Strings with no intermediate steps.

Todo:

  • Add code examples.
  • Add functionality to prettifiy other text formats such as TOML, YAML and RON.
  • Move the Indentor, ScopedIndentor and AutoOutdenter to Corlib as well as any other related objects.
  • Complete documentation
  • Clean up the code base.

Coding Style

This project uses a coding style the emphasises the use of white space over keeping the line and column counts as low as possible.

So this:

fn foo()
{

    bar();

}

Not this:

fn foo()
{
    bar();
}
